I am glad you liked it. I wanted him to write more on what happened later so I am hoping he's working on a new book.
I also started reading Applebaum's Gulag, seems also nicely written, but I am only at the beginning. I am also reading Blood Telegram by Garry J Bass on the break up of West and East Pakistan (Bangladesh) and Kissinger and Nixon's role. Finished more than half of the book, very well written and informative.
